In their miniaturized state, Atom and the JLA try to negotiate with the bacteria’s leaders, but they do not believe their story and take the heroes into custody. This is possible because in this microscopic state the powers of the JLA do not work properly. While Superman is getting tortured, Atom hopes the JLA’s powers will return after their bodies got more accustomed to the situation. Thankfully, one of the bacteria’s scientists takes side with the JLA. He sets the heroes free and organizes a riot resulting in the destruction of the power plant. Atom realizes that the boy’s doctors now will start the laser surgery, so they need to evacuate the microbe city quickly. The JLA succeeds, but the leader remains so he can die with his old world.
Most of the team leaves the boy’s brain, but Superman stays behind to help the survivors of the laser surgery adjust to the new world. However, a day later, the boy’s immune system wipes out all bacteria anyways, and the boy’s saddened by the loss of the colony inside him. The final panel shows that perhaps some bacteria were able to survive the wipeout.
